Best Coast Jazz is an album by American jazz trumpeter Clifford Brown featuring tracks recorded in 1954 and released on the EmArcy label.[1] Further tracks from the same sessions were released as Clifford Brown All Stars in 1956 following Brown's untimely death.
Allmusic awarded the album 4 stars and Scott Yanow, in his review, states "fine solos all around but Brownie's closing statement cuts everyone".[2]
